Heart Of Darkness (1975)
Maybe you see further than I can see.
Maybe things just look differently.
Maybe I'm nothing but a shadow on a wall.
Maybe love's a tomb where you dance at night.
Maybe sanctuary is electric light.

I get so tired it's like I'm another man
and everything I see seems so underhanded.
I don't see anything that I want.

Image, object, and illusion - go down to the corner
where none of the faces fit a human form
where nothing I see there isn't deformed
where in a secret lab works a Doctor Moreau
and no private eye's gotta tell me it's a long goodbye.

I get so tired it's like I'm another man
and everything I see seems so underhanded.
I don't see anything that I want.

Final Solution (1976)
The girls won't touch me cause I got a misdirection
and living at night isn't helping my complexion.
The signs all say it's a social infection.
A little bit of fun's never been an insurrection.

Mom threw me out til I get some pants that fit.
She just don't approve of my strange kind of wit.
I get so excited I always gotta lose it
then they pack me off and make me take the cure.

I don't need a cure.
I need a final solution.

Buy me a ticket to a sonic reduction.
Guitars gonna sound like a nuclear destruction.
It seems I'm the victim of a natural selection
or maybe just a slide in another direction.

My Dark Ages (I Don't Get Around) (1976)
In the dark I get so confused.
I fall in love like I fall from grace.
I wander round, wonder where I went.
I wander round through the blank spaces
the empty places.

I don't get around and I don't fall in love.

I need a car that can get me around
at night in the city where the air can shine.
We'll drive around
and, oh, we'll fall in love.
Things will be alright.

Heaven (1977)
Here she comes walking with that solar beat.
The sun does funny things. It's like some prankster's cheat.
I could swear the city's like a magic beach.
Against the curb I can hear those street waves beat.

Come on darlin'
it feels like heaven.
It's such a problem.

Mid-summer's night on a magic beach.
The dreams that come to me they don't look out of reach.
In the mirror I can see the other face
and if I sleep tonight I'll wake up in some other place.

Not Happy (1980)
Can't we be happy?
Can't we be happy like the swimming turtles?
Can't we be happy like the bumble bees on the River Tees?
When they buzz they buzz in harmonies.
Can't we be happy like them?

I am happy when you are happy
and you are happy when I am happy
so let's be happy.

Can't we be happy?
Can't we be happy like the tiny mice?
Can't we be happy like the oddball birds of South America?
The oddball birds of South America are happy.
Can't we be happy like them?

I am happy when you are happy
and you are happy when I am happy
so let's be happy.
